   Most people recommend 35-40mm.
   
   However Ive got mine down 50mm & its fine using it everyday.

   mines 50mm all round on 16" Lenso's and no problems at all, mind you... I have adjustable SPAX coilovers so I can tackle even the craziest of speedbumps

    For both looks and practicality 50mm is good you might scrape a little bit on speed humps with a fully loaded car, (i.e. four passengers and a boot full).
